After the replacement marriage, I was forced to fight at home
Chapter 369 Mistake
Meng Wan heard this and grabbed Lvliu's hand, "What did you say? Is it the person that the Third Master is looking for? He said that there were too few people and they added more?"
Lvliu endured the pain in her hand and nodded, "That's what I heard. The officer said to hurry up because they might start a fight. But one of them said, why rush? As long as we lead them to the old Taoist cave, everything will be fine. They had already made arrangements there the day before yesterday."
Meng Wan's head buzzed. She had seen the old Taoist cave before. It was when Zhou Yu took her there on the way back from paying homage to Wang when they were just married. It was on a rocky cliff, very steep, standing upright there. If someone was trapped inside, it would be very difficult to break out.
It turns out that Zhou Zheng had planned it. He actually acted so quickly. What should I do? Zhou Yu was really too busy during this period and had no energy to deal with Zhou Zheng. I reminded him several times, but he didn't take it seriously. Now, Zhou Zheng actually acted so quickly. The officer said that seeing that the original manpower was not enough, he came back to add more. From this point of view, even if Uncle Qi found people for Zhou Yu, I am afraid he would not have the upper hand.
No, I have to find a way to tell Zhou Yu that since Zhou Zheng has set an ambush in Laodao Cave, it will be fine as long as Zhou Yu doesn't go.
Thinking of this, she called out to Caixia loudly. Caixia knew kung fu, so it was perfect for her to go and report the news.
Lvliu looked at Meng Wan, whose forehead was sweating with anxiety, and stepped forward and said, "Second Madam, I'll go too. Third Miss is also there. If anything really happens, I'm afraid Cai'er, Caixia, and Xuefu will be controlled by her again."
Meng Wan was stunned. Yes, Zhou Yingning would also go today. Who knew if she knew about Zhou Zheng's plan? What if she found someone to stop them on the road? What if she went to stop them herself? Caixia and the others were servants after all, and there were also witnesses from the clan going with them today.
"Let's go. I'll go."
"Second Madam." Chuan'er and Dongmei came forward with worried looks on their faces.
"Stop talking, there's no time. Go get the carriage. Caixia and Luliu will follow me. Chuan'er will go to the Yong'an Earl's Mansion, and Dongmei will go to Third Aunt's house to look for Cousin Jun."
After saying that, he didn't even change his clothes and walked hurriedly out of the yard.
Meng Wan was extremely regretful at this moment. She and Zhou Yu had underestimated the enemy. Now it seemed that Zhou Zheng had been too calm since the incident. No one would be able to handle these things calmly if their mother was forced to go to the mountain, even if she had asked for it.
After Zhou Zheng sent Hu and Zhou Yingning away, he must have made up his mind, and this decision must have been extremely vicious and ruthless.
Meng Wan became more and more anxious. They had already fallen out, so Zhou Zheng's actions must be very extreme. After hearing Lv Liu say that she had never seen the people Ling Guan brought, they must have been found from outside. So Zhou Zheng must have only one purpose, which was to kill Zhou Yu.
I wonder what Zhou Yu is like now. Will she be trapped by Zhou Zheng? Although I set out as soon as I heard the news, they were riding in a carriage, but those few went on horseback.
Meng Wan clasped her hands together, and Lvliu said softly, "Don't worry, Second Madam, the Second Young Master will be fine."
Meng Wan shook his head, still muttering to himself. Caixia anxiously lifted the curtain and asked the driver to drive faster.

"Second brother, are you sure we don't need to stay a little longer?" Zhou Zheng was very surprised when he heard Zhou Yu say that.
"Well, that's all. My mother hasn't seen you for so many years, so it's okay to kowtow occasionally. If you kowtow for three days in a row, my mother will be very puzzled and will ask you about it later. It doesn't matter to you, but I'm afraid of scaring my third sister, who is not well to begin with."
When Zhou Yingning heard Zhou Yu say this, he looked up at him with an unhappy face and snorted, "Third brother, if you don't need it, then don't need it. Go back quickly. It's too hot today."
Zhou Zheng turned around and glanced at the other servant beside him, then sighed and said, "Since Second Brother said so, I will naturally listen to you. However, Father still wants Second Brother to explain it to him. Don't misunderstand that we brothers and sisters are not filial."
Zhou Yu nodded and walked over to give instructions to the servant who was looking after the cemetery.
Zhou Zheng's servant ran in and whispered a few words. Zhou Zheng smiled and looked at Zhou Yingning who was urging him with an unhappy face, "Let's go. This kind of place is really uncomfortable. Didn't you say you wanted to go see your mother? Can't you go tomorrow? Besides, didn't I go in the jail the day I sent my mother there? Can't we go in a few days?"
Zhou Zheng walked up to Zhou Yingning and said with a smile, "Why are you in such a hurry? Third brother would like to invite you to watch a lively scene. How about that?"
"Ah? Is there any excitement more exciting than the one that happened at our house that day?" Zhou Yingning said sarcastically.
She didn't know much about what happened at home, she just knew that Guyu had returned, and her maid hadn't found out who redeemed her. When she sent her maid to look for her again, she was told that she had already left the capital with her family.
Although both Mrs. Hu and Zhou Zheng suspected that it was Meng Wan who did it, only Zhou Yingning suspected that it was Zhou Yinghan. When she asked Mrs. Hu and Zhou Zheng, neither of them told her what happened that day. Zhou Yingning suddenly wondered if Mrs. Hu's so-called kindness to her and protecting her was right. Sometimes, not knowing anything is not a good thing.
"Hmph, just watch. Third Brother will avenge you today."
When Zhou Yingning heard the word "revenge", his eyes lit up, "Third brother, are you going to do something to Zhou Yu?"
Zhou Zheng shook his head and looked at Zhou Yu walking towards him without saying a word.
After a while, everyone arrived at the bottom of the rock under the old Taoist cave. There was a fork in the road further ahead.
Zhou Yu said while riding on the horse, "Then we won't delay my third brother from visiting the princess." After saying that, he pulled the reins to turn to another road, and heard Zhou Zheng say with a smile, "Don't worry, second brother, why don't we go upstairs and take a rest?"
Zhou Yu was stunned, and followed Zhou Zheng's gaze to look at the not-so-big old Taoist cave on the rock.
"What do you mean, Third Brother?"
"What do you mean? You'll know after you go and take a look, brother."
Zhou Yu didn't even think twice and just pushed hard with his legs to continue walking.
"If Second Brother doesn't go, I'm afraid he won't even be able to see Second Sister-in-law for the last time."
Zhou Yu stopped abruptly, his face full of surprise, "What did you say? Are you saying your second sister-in-law is on top?"
Everyone following Zhou Yu pulled the reins one after another, and Cai'er hurriedly lifted the curtain.
Zhou Zheng looked at everyone's expressions and laughed, "How would we know if we don't go and take a look?" Then he opened his palm, which contained a jade earring.
Cai Er exclaimed, "That's what Second Grandma wore this morning."
How could Zhou Yu not know? When he went out in the morning, he pinched Meng Wan's earlobe.
"What do you want to do?"
"What?" Zhou Zheng shrugged. "I just wanted to invite my second brother to go there and see if it's still the same as in previous years."
When they were young, Zhou Yiheng brought them to the old Taoist cave to worship, and the two brothers always liked to play there for a while. The old Taoist cave was not big, and the Jade Emperor was originally enshrined in it. Later, it was not known whether it was destroyed by wild beasts or no one cared about it for a long time, and slowly only a table and a few earthen incense burners were left.
Zhou Yu dismounted from his horse and was about to go up the cliff. There was only a small mountain path in the cliff, which was wide enough for one person to pass, so horses could not go up.
Seeing the servants were about to follow behind him, Zhou Zheng got off his horse and raised his hand gently, "Second brother, how about just you and me going up?"
"No, Second Young Master, who knows if Third Young Master has an ambush up there?" Xue Fu said anxiously.
Zhou Zheng chuckled, "Yeah, what if there's someone there? It's better for Second Brother not to go up there."
Zhou Yu didn't even think about it and said, "Stop talking nonsense, let's go." Then he took the lead and walked forward.
Cai'er looked at the two people going up the cliff one after another, and hurriedly jumped out of the car and ran to the cemetery.
The people sent by Uncle Qi couldn't let Zhou Yu go up by himself, so they hurriedly followed behind, but saw several people coming out from the bushes nearby. The two groups looked at each other, and no one took the first step.
Zhou Zheng turned his head and took a look, then said with a smile, "Come up and watch the fun together."
Zhou Yu stopped and looked back at him, "Don't do anything that you can't bear the consequences of."
Zhou Zheng smiled lightly, "Don't worry, since I have done it, I can bear it."
Zhou Yu didn't say anything else and walked faster.
The Taoist cave slowly appeared in front of him. The entrance of the cave was blocked by trees, so he couldn't see what was going on inside. However, he could see two women standing at the door, one was Lvliu and the other was Caixia, both of them were tied up there.
Zhou Yu knew he had fallen into a trap. He had originally sent people to keep an eye on Zhou Zheng after Meng Wan reminded him. He knew about Zhou Zheng's recent abnormalities and had made all possible precautions. He had originally thought that Zhou Zheng would do something in the cemetery, so he was waiting for Zhou Zheng to make a move. However, after all the procedures were completed, Zhou Zheng did not make any move. He also gave up his original plan for three consecutive days, thinking that Zhou Zheng might have arranged it in the evening or tomorrow, and he would not have the time to accompany him in the calculation. He might as well do it this way for now, and he would do it when there was a chance in the future. Anyway, it would be fine as long as the people who were keeping an eye on Zhou Zheng did not make any mistakes. However, he did not expect that Zhou Zheng did not have no arrangements, but just made a move towards Meng Wan, which was something Zhou Yu had not expected.
Caixia was tied up but her mouth was not blocked. She looked at Zhou Yu coming up and shouted, "Second Young Master, be careful. There are people inside."
Zhou Yu asked anxiously, "Where's the Second Madam?"
"Inside." Caixia shook her head. "Lvliu said that she saw the officer taking people back to get the horses to deal with you. Second Madam was worried and brought the servants to tell you the news. As soon as she got to the bottom of the rock, she was tied up and taken inside by them."
Zhou Yu didn't have time to think about it. He walked to the cave entrance in two or three steps. It was a little dark in the cave. It took Zhou Yu a while to adapt before he could see the situation inside.
Meng Wan was seen sitting on a stone bench with his hands tied behind his back and a cloth tied around his mouth. Two burly men were guarding him. There were two other men at the entrance of the cave, all with ferocious looks on their faces.
There was another person sitting at the entrance of the cave. Seeing Zhou Zheng following behind, he stood up and said with a smirk, "Third Young Master, did you guys do a good job today?"
Zhou Zheng clapped his hands, "Very good, don't worry, just do as I say in a while, don't hesitate, and I will give you double the amount later."
"Okay, just wait and see. The Third Young Master is merciful, just cut it with one knife. After all, we will continue to be husband and wife, so why bother about it?"
Zhou Zheng smiled slightly, "We are brothers, so we still have feelings for each other."
Caixia heard this and knew what Zhou Zheng was up to. "Second Master, Second Madam, run!"
However, Zhou Yu walked slowly towards Meng Wan, as if he didn't hear the conversation between Zhou Yu and that person.
